This will hurt a lot people’s feelings, but Jesus, the apostles, and the first believers didn’t jump from one religion to another.
They saw themselves as Jews who had found the Messiah of Israel.
They were living out Israel’s story as it reached its climax in Christ.
The gospel to the nations was not a rebellion against Judaism but its fulfillment and expansion.
Paul in Romans 11 warns Gentiles: don’t be arrogant toward the natural branches. Israel’s current hardening is partial and temporary. God is preserving a remnant.
When Christians slip into antisemitic conspiracies (like I once did), they’re actually swallowing a counterfeit gospel.
They stop seeing Jesus as the Jewish Messiah who fulfills Israel’s promises, and start seeing Him as a Cosmic, mystical Gentile liberator from “the Jews.”
That’s a reversal of the real story and exactly what Scripture warns about at the end of the age.
And it’s all part of the strong delusion we see rising today.
@LisaDawnQ17 Possible rapture date for the church according to the Essene Calandar, it’s the correct Feast of Trumpets date. The lunar calendar is the 23-24.
If people were as committed to their spouse as they are to their children, divorce might not exist. The best thing you can do for your child is to love and commit to your spouse. #parenting#marriageworks#family
Can these seasons be challenging? Absolutely. But they can also be so much fun, so rich, full of great opportunities to learn more about ourselves and our children.
There is so much richness in marriage, but if you put the pressure on your spouse to fulfill all your needs, you can choke the very life out of your relationship. No person can give you what your heart truly needs. #godsplan#marriedcouple#marriedliferocks#weddingwednesday
